Hugh Casson’s Cambridge (1992)

An illustrated guide to the historical city of Cambridge by an architect who has a personal appreciation of the buildings. Watercolour drawings of many of the finest colleges are accompanied by notes on their history and their particular attractions. Pen-and-ink sketches of details of architecture reveal some of the hidden beauties of the ancient buildings, while the soft pastel washes capture the unique qualities of the stone in the changing light. Sir Hugh Casson is the author of “Hugh Casson’s London” and “Hugh Casson’s Oxford”.  Condition: Some light creasing to extremities of dustjacket, otherwise very good.
